Man gets Michael Phelps death stare tattoo on leg
Welp, we've reached it: Peak Phelps. Or Peak Rio. Peak something.
I'm not exactly sure what the point it is we've reached, but I know atop that Olympic crest stands Ricky Fung — a man with Michael Phelps' Death Star gaze newly inked on his leg.
An image of Fung's new tattoo was posted to Instagram by the Chronic Ink Tattoo Shop in Toronto.
Chronic owner Fung asked tattoo artist/employee Livia Tsang to ink the most decorated Olympian of all time's now-immortal death-ray stare onto his leg.
For those who missed out on the angry #PhelpsFace meme, it's this face Phelps made toward South African swimmer Chad le Clos on Tuesday.

Fung told ESPN's Darren Rovell that the Phelps tattoo is the beginning of a sleeve he's starting on his right leg. He's not a big swim fan, but Phelps' dominance in Rio inspired him.
"I wasn't even a big Phelps fan before this, and I'm not really a swim fan," Fung said. "But just seeing him go out and win the way he has has been inspiring to me...looking at that is a good reminder every day to go out with focus and dominate like he did."
Dan is on Twitter. He dominates taquitos like Phelps dominates water.
